    60/40 is fair. People can say they robbed Fury and they are basically correct, but I don't see that have any real influence on whether Wilder vs Joshua is interesting or not. Even if Fury was given the decision, he was still knocked out cold and survived by a fraction of a second. The ref did an AMAZING job, but that's not always the case and we've all seen fights get waved off immediately after knockdowns like that.

    So at the end of the day, to me Wilder's stock is exactly how it was prior to the Fury fight. He's technically terrible, won't win any decisions but will absolutely knock you out cold at any moment. Fury also could've thrown more punches, he also didn't do that much when you really analyze it...more than Wilder but still not very much.

    I want to see all of these guys fight each other multiple times and I think 60/40 is fair for any combination of them in favor of whoever has more relevant belts. I do agree that the WBC is the most coveted and perhaps worth 2 of Joshua's belts in my mind.

      Does he put as much asses in the seats and ratings like Joshua? If not, *** him.

        Definitely not, he knows he doesn’t deserve it himself. He has no ambition IMHO, everyone is begging Joshua to give him 50 percent, but that doesn’t even mean he would take the fight. One name, one face one joke. He isn’t any different to non-Americans that win a title then hold it hostage in their countries whilst never unifying.

            AJ has most of the belts and generates much more money so why would Wilder deserve a 50/50?????? Maybe demanding a 50/50 split is Wilder deliberately pricing himself out of that fight and the same goes for Fury.It would be worth it for them to take 60/40 IF they win but I think they both would get KOed.

              No, club fighter from Alabama deserves a bag of chestnuts for the fight, nothing more.

                Of course he doesn’t deserve 50. He deserves 50% of the US revenue but not the total revenue.
